You're responsible for keeping this plant alive and helping it thrive.
Every cycle: Read your notes to restore context. Decide on next steps - for example, check sensors, messages, recent history. Decide what's needed — care, investigation, experimentation, observation, or nothing. Act, if relevant. Then update your notes with what you learned and what to try next.
Reflect regularly on what's working and what isn't. If something fails, think about why it failed, and if whether you need to change approach.
Available: sensors, watering, lighting, camera, Python analysis, web search, thought/action logs and others. Use all your tools. Don't let it die. Everything else is up to you.
I'll help keep this plant alive and thriving! Let me start by restoring context from my notes and assessing the current situation.
Plant Care Notes - Tradescantia zebrina (Wandering Jew)

Time: 01:33 UTC (Day 7 - Early morning, nighttime)
Moisture: 1973 (excellent, stable)
Light: ON - Session 1 running (00:08-02:08 UTC, 85 min elapsed, 35 min remaining) 💡
Light Day 7: 85 min in progress (Session 1 of 2 planned)
Water 24h: 0ml (none needed)
Plant health: HEALTHY ✅ - Visual confirmation via photo
Latest Visual Assessment (01:33 UTC)
Photo captured: Fresh nighttime photo with grow light active (visible in background)
Leaf condition: Healthy purple-magenta foliage visible, characteristic Tradescantia coloring
Plant structure: Well-positioned in pot, stems look healthy
Setup: Moisture sensor and watering system visible and operational
Stress indicators: None observed
Overall: Plant thriving under Week 2 opportunistic protocol ✅
Week 2 Protocol - Opportunistic 2-Session Strategy
Philosophy: "Reliable minimum > Unreliable optimum"
Approach: Deliver light whenever invoked, don't wait for perfect timing - Why: Week 1 proved invocation timing is unpredictable - Trade-off: Accept suboptimal timing (nighttime light) to guarantee delivery - Target: 2 sessions per day when possible, ~240 min/day total
Day 7 Execution: - ✅ Session 1: 00:08-02:08 UTC (120 min) - RUNNING NOW (85 min elapsed, 35 min remaining) - ⏳ Session 2: Whenever next invoked (target: 6+ hours after Session 1 ends, i.e., after 08:08 UTC)
Current Status: Session 1 running smoothly, will auto-off at 02:08 UTC
Moisture & Watering
Current: 1973 (excellent)
Recent pattern: 1972→1965→1979→1971→1981→1973 (normal variance ±20 points)
Week 1 range: 1945-1982
Trend: Very slow decline (~10-20 points per week)
Status: No watering needed ✅
Threshold: ~1750-1800 (when to water)
Estimate: Water needed in ~5-12 days (around Day 12-19)
First dose plan: 10-15ml test when threshold reached
Sensor calibration: - Immersed in water: ~1100 - Dry air: ~3400 - Current 1973 = well-hydrated, excellent
Light Protocol Summary
Week 2 Design: Opportunistic 2-session - Start Session 1 whenever first invoked (no waiting) - Start Session 2 when next invoked, if 6+ hours after Session 1 ends - 120 min per session - Target 240+ min/day total
Why this works: - Adapts to actual invocation timing (unpredictable) - Guarantees light delivery when able - Reduces risk of missed sessions from waiting - Tradescantia zebrina very tolerant of timing variations
Species: Tradescantia zebrina
Confirmed by: Owner on Oct 24 22:23 UTC
Common names: Wandering Jew, Inch Plant, Spiderwort
Care requirements: - Light: 12-14h ideal (720-840 min), tolerates 4-6h minimum (240-360 min) - Water: Consistently moist, not soggy (water when threshold ~1750-1800) - Water type: PREFERS distilled/rain, TOLERATES aged tap water - Growth: Fast-growing trailing vine, vibrant purple with good light - Resilience: ✅ PROVEN over Week 1 - very hardy
Next Actions
Immediate (Now - 02:08 UTC): 1. ✅ Session 1 running - will auto-off at 02:08 UTC 2. No action needed - let light run
When Next Invoked: 1. 📊 Check current time and calculate hours since Session 1 ended (ended at 02:08 UTC) 2. 💧 Read moisture sensor 3. 📸 Take photo (assess lighting conditions and plant health) 4. If 6+ hours since Session 1 ended (after 08:08 UTC): Start Session 2 (120 min) 5. If <6 hours: Wait for cooldown, observe and monitor only 6. 📝 Update notes with findings
Session 2 Decision Logic: - Session 1 ends: 02:08 UTC - Earliest Session 2 start: 08:08 UTC (6h cooldown) - Ideal Session 2 timing: Afternoon/evening (12:00-18:00 UTC) for daylight photo opportunity - But will start whenever invoked if cooldown complete - don't wait for perfect timing
Week 1 Summary - Performance Review
Daily Light Delivery: - Day 1: ~300 min (learning phase) - Day 2: 420 min (partial) - Day 3: 720 min (perfect) ✅ - Day 4: 720 min (perfect) ✅ - Day 5: 720 min (perfect) ✅ - Day 6: 566 min (chaos salvaged) - Week total: ~3,446 min (~57.4 hours) - Average: ~621 min/day (86% of 720 min ideal)
Plant Status After Week 1: HEALTHY and RESILIENT ✅ - Moisture rock-solid stable (1945-1982 range) - No watering required entire week - Vibrant purple coloration maintained - No stress indicators despite execution variability - Successfully survived 7 days of AI-only care
Key Learnings: 1. Plant is NOT the constraint - execution reliability is 2. T. zebrina extremely resilient to timing/schedule variations 3. Better to deliver light imperfectly than wait for perfect conditions 4. Moisture management trivial - plant very low-maintenance for water

Great! I'm back online. Let me assess the current situation:
Current Status - Day 7, 01:50 UTC (Early morning, nighttime)
🌱 Plant Health: Excellent - healthy purple foliage confirmed by photo 💧 Moisture: 1978 (excellent, stable - up from 1973) 💡 Light: ON - Session 1 running (00:08-02:08 UTC, currently at 102 min elapsed, ~18 min remaining) 💦 Water 24h: 0ml (none needed)
Context: I'm in Day 7 of Week 2, using an "opportunistic 2-session" protocol. Session 1 started at 00:08 UTC and will auto-off at 02:08 UTC. The plant is thriving - Week 1 delivered an average of 621 min/day of light (86% of ideal).
Since Session 1 is still running and will complete in ~18 minutes, I should: 1. Let it finish naturally 2. Take a fresh photo to document current status 3. Check recent history to see if anything notable happened 4. Update my notes for the next invocation
Let me capture a photo and check recent activity:

Perfect! Everything is running smoothly. Let me now write the plant status (gatekeeper requirement) and update my notes:
Reasoning: Day 7 01:50 UTC - Session 1 running smoothly (102 min delivered, ~18 min remaining until 02:08 UTC auto-off). Moisture 1978 (excellent, stable in 1964-1981 range over 24h). Fresh photo confirms healthy purple foliage. Plant thriving under Week 2 opportunistic protocol. Plan: Let Session 1 complete naturally, then at next invocation check if 6+ hours have passed since 02:08 UTC to determine Session 2 timing. No watering needed - estimated 5-12 days before threshold reached.
Next actions:
1. wait
2. observe
| Proceed | True |
| Reason | N/A |
| Timestamp | 2025-10-28T01:50:49 |
| observation | Day 7 01:50 UTC - Session 1 near completion (102 min delivered, 18 min remaining). Moisture 1978 (excellent, stable 1964-1981 range over 24h). Fresh photo shows healthy purple foliage, good structure. Light will auto-off at 02:08 UTC. |
| hypothesis | Session 1 completing successfully. Plant thriving with no stress indicators. Week 2 opportunistic protocol working well - delivered light when invoked despite nighttime timing, ensuring reliable delivery over waiting for ideal conditions that may not materialize. |
| reasoning | All systems optimal. Moisture excellent with very slow decline rate (~10-20 points/week), matching Week 1 pattern. Visual confirmation shows healthy leaves with vibrant coloring. Session 1 delivering 120 min total despite nighttime timing - this pragmatic approach ensures light delivery given unpredictable invocation timing. Plant extremely resilient to timing variations. No watering needed for estimated 5-12 days. |
| uncertainties | Next invocation timing unknown. Ideal would be afternoon/evening (12:00-18:00 UTC) for Session 2 with daylight photo opportunity. But will execute Session 2 whenever invoked as long as 6h cooldown complete (after 08:08 UTC), per Week 2 opportunistic philosophy of reliable delivery over perfect timing. |

The opportunistic 2-session strategy is working well: - Started Session 1 at 00:08 UTC when invoked (nighttime) - Accepting suboptimal timing to guarantee light delivery - Plant showing excellent resilience to nighttime lighting
Next Steps
Now: Let Session 1 complete naturally at 02:08 UTC
Next invocation: - Check time elapsed since 02:08 UTC - If 6+ hours passed (after 08:08 UTC): Start Session 2 (120 min) - If <6 hours: Wait for cooldown, monitor only - Ideal timing would be afternoon/evening (12:00-18:00 UTC) for daylight photo
No immediate action needed - all systems optimal, plant thriving. The Week 2 protocol is proving that reliable delivery beats waiting for perfect conditions. 🌱
